Are you able to disconnect and reconnect to the Nextcloud server?

Asking because on my end, attempting to login via the Nextcloud app fails with sthe same error as well:

Error
HTTP request failed with HTTP status-code: 404

Note that my setup uses a self-signed certificate (gated server).

Reproduce:

1. Connect the Nextcloud app to a server by IP-address with a self-signed certificate.
2. Install Nextcloud News app from either F-Droid or Google Play.
3. Use option "Login using Nextcloud Files App", select user@IP, and allow the login request.
4. The error message appears.

System:

• App version 0.9.9.85
• Android 14, API 34

Attempting to use the manual login option leads to issue #1290, which @David-Development closed noting that login via the Nextcloud app should (still) work for self-signed certificates.

[tom-ch1]

manually logging in also gives 404.
This app is broken!

[mirkoreul]

At least in my case this turned out to be related to the Nextcloud app being outdated server-side. I was able to login again after fixing that (though there are still compatibility issues, see here).

[David-Development]

@tom-ch1 Can you confirm that the Nextcloud News App is still installed and active in the Nextcloud Web Interface?

@mirkoreul Thank you for sharing your findings! I believe that a dialog pointing users to the issue would be helpful.
